Chapter 0249 

“And I’m beginning to not like you again,” Jai mutters. 

“Jai, I’m just trying to help.” Atticus says, a sliver of irritation in his voice. 

“Yeah, what I’m seeing is you getting a little too cosy the moment Seb isn’t in the picture.” Jai shoots back. 

“Jai!” Valerie says as Atticus stands up his eyes flashing. 

“Don’t forget I’m an alpha. Know your place.” He says, clenching his fists and I know he’s trying to calm himself and Jai’s words have angered 

.too. 

Jai scoffs. “Yeah, but I’m also her Beta and I’m not going to let you- 

“Enough,” I say, my voice trembling as I try to remain calm. “Jai… enough. I don’t need anyone to look out for me. Me and Atticus will try to find Dad… Val watch my babies. Jai… organise Mom’s funeral for this coming Sunday.” I stand up and look at 

Atticus. I 

“I 

“Let’s try this,” I say. 

“I should be the one to go with you,” Jai says softly, placing a hand on my upper arm. 

“No. Atticus is an Alpha, he’s stronger Jai and you aren’t fully recovered. It’s better 

it’s the two of us.” I say firmly.. 

And… you’re still loyal to your Alpha. 

He looks concerned and almost hurt by my words, but it is the truth. 

“Alright, as you wish, Alpha,” 

“One more thing…” I say as we are about to leave. 

“Yeah?” Jai says as Valerie places her hand on his arm. 

“We are a team, the four of us now… our loyalty and trust should be to one another 

foremost. I hope you know what side you are on.” I say. My eyes meet Jai’s and hè.

“I know… I just don’t think Sebastian would betray us for no reason… I know 

Sebastian. We grew up together. He would not betray us. There might be factors we 

don’t know-” 

“Jai! Enough! I am not going to do this again! If there was a reason, goddess maybe… but he should have told me! If there was something, he should have talked to me!” I 

shout, unable to control myself. 

“Zaia, I think-“I raise my hand, cutting Valerie off. 

“This is your final warning, Jai. If you can’t accept the reality, then… I will have no 

choice but to strip you of your position. I need a Beta loyal to me, not their old 

Alpha.” I say with finality. 

There’s a tense silence and I know my words have hurt him. He nods, and he lowers 

his head. “Yes, Alpha.” 

“I hope I’m clear… from this day forward… I don’t want his name mentioned in front 

of me ever again. Do you understand?” 

“Understood,” Jai says, pulling away from Valerie. He turns and leaves. 

“Let’s go,” I say to Atticus. My eyes meet Valerie’s, and she looks conflicted. 

It must be hard having to choose between the man you love and your friend… but I 

don’t need her to choose. She can choose Jai. 

We step into the garden but keep to a secluded area and I look up at the moon. 

“Do you have a plan or an idea of how this might work?” Atticus asks. 

“I might…” I say quietly. 

Taking a deep breath, I look ahead and softly blow the dust from my hand. 

Father… Where are you?
